Hypertension and Dental Implants: A Review

Abstract

The objectives of this study are to raise some questions in regard to the current literature, in order to study the correlation of hypertension to implant surgery. It also studies the association of hypertensive drugs with the survival or failure of dental implants. Only one study has been reported, which is associated with implant failure[0,6%] There were not many articles in this field. The findings from this recent review demonstrate that more investigation is needed concerning hypertension and failure or survival of dental implants.
